How a small organization with limited funds and two staff members developed a successful strategy to meet its preservation and access needs.
The Hawaiian Historical Society is a small, non-profit membership organization founded in 1892 during the time of the Hawaiian Kingdom for the purpose of providing a library on the history of Hawai’i and Polynesia. Their primary goals are the preservation, care and access of their collections. This webinar will show you, in the context of a case study, how to make a long-range preservation plan using worksheets. See the steps the Hawaiian Historical Society took to identify and articulate their preservation and access needs, how they set priorities, and how they developed a long-range action plan for successfully addressing those needs. Finally, we will look at how the staff of two implemented their plan and what they have accomplished. There will be lots of handouts and practical suggestions to get you started using the worksheet method for better preservation planning in your own institutions.
